Wembley Concert Review 20th march 2005! Oh My Goodness What a night!!

And now performing infront of 10'000 totally up for it UK fans....so Wembley pavillion, 8:30pm and muffled from behind the giant Anastacia Tour banner comes a drummer warming up for the amazing 2 hours ahead. This is third time I've seen Anastacias European Tour and this is always the moment that gets me moving as its marks Anastacia's arrival on stage as mere minutes rather than hours, days, weeks, months away!!


The band arrive on stage, and the crowd go wilde, the lights are down untill the music really starts hotting up and Anastacia appears on screen, this errupts the crowd even more. The first bars of Seasons Change begin and its like seeing the tour for the first time all over again.


The concert had pretty much the same layout, same songs different couple different dancers and musicans which all played wonderfully. Anastacia performs alittle differently at each show which evidently to make it more enjoyable for herself, make sure the show stays fresh, but the energy this lady has, wow totally amazing. Her dancing still rocks and she evidently alot more relaxed and comfortable on stage this is shown simply in the way she interacts with the crowd, her fabulous dancers and band whilst on stage.


Anastacia still got rather emotional during 'Heavy on my Heart' & 'Your never be alone' as she performed the latter song someone threw a teddy bear on stage, unfortunately Anastacia missed it, all we hear through the speakers is ''oh shoot, umm lalalalalalalaaaa'' and right back into the song! after singing she says ''i don't do catching i have nails you know' The usual very funny Anastacia moments took place all the way through the show, and Anastacia being Anastacia singing everything 100% live and upclose mean't every person there on Sunday night loved it, you could tell by there faces at the end and just simply by the atmosphere as it was electric.

Oh and I havent said I was sitting 5th row completely center, and in my opinion the best seat in the house! especially as I was sitted behind Anastacias VIP guests! so if it's good enough for them!! This was a complete fan-ana-tastic night! one I shall never forget. I hope to add pictures in dew course as I did it the old fashion way of non-digital this time around, fingers crossed they come out good! checkback to the gallery link on right side of webpage for updates.

Halfway through the show Anastacia heads to the back of the pavillion to get up close to the fans at the back, then she performs couple of songs which is shown on three huge screens. Whilst she performed half the band stayed on the main stage and as i watched the drummer played whilst sitting on a plastic barrel - as i say the band where excellent complete charactors which most help Anastacia endlessly.

Thank you Anastacia for a fantastic night is all I can say - and to the mayor on London if your hopeing to host the 2012 olypmic games sort out the road signs around north London, as at the moment they are naff!

US Billboard Review for LOA...

(12/03/2005) Left Outside Alone Producer(s): Dallas Austin, Glenn Ballard Writer(s): Anastacia, G. Ballard, D. Austin Publisher(s): various Genre: POP Label/Catalog Number: Daylight/Columbia 51639 (CD promo) Source: Billboard Magazine Originally Reviewed: March 12, 2005 ~"Among the ever-growing list of superstars that light up the European charts, yet appear too melodic to seduce U.S. radio, Anastacia is near the top. Despite having a stable full of No. 1 singles (including this one) and albums overseas, this mega-talented singer/songwriter is, ironically, a Yankee who can't catch a break on her own side of the pond. Because she capably struts among rock, pop and dance, former label Epic couldn't figure out what to do with her. But fortunately, Anastacia is now with Sony sister Columbia, where there is serious excitement behind giving this siren the attention she deserves. "Left Outside Alone" is a one-listen lightning rod of an anthem: danceable and wholly rock-solid credible. Overseas, she's on her third album; let's hope that it's the charm for the pop-depraved U.S. market. Given the chance, Anastacia is the ultimate mass-appeal artist. Her self-titled album drops June 7.—CT~
All good praise from US for once! woooohooo
